Taylor Johnson client Joseph Nicholas Construction (JNC), a dedicated automotive construction studio within the Nicholas Family of Companies’ diversified construction division, has been putting the pedal to the metal with two major project groundbreakings this summer: Illinois’ largest Porsche dealership, Barrington Porsche in Barrington, Ill.; and Cadillac’s third flagship brand store in the world, Carter Cadillac of Chicago, located on part of the former Lincoln Yards site in Chicago. After TJ issued press releases announcing the groundbreakings, Commercial Construction & Renovation reached out to feature JNC in its July issue. We coordinated a Q&A with JNC Director of Construction Joey Mariconda, who discussed the two recent projects, challenges and opportunities in the current market, and how family shaped the company’s values and culture.
